Agape


"Agape doesn't love somebody because they're worthy.
Agape makes them worthy by the strength and power of its love.
Agape doesn't love somebody because they're beautiful.
Agape loves in such a way that it makes them beautiful.

Although my spring break was pretty uneventful since I was sick for most of it, I also had the best weekend of my life. Going to tec has been so special to me ever since I first went as a junior. It really changed my life for the better and has taught me that there are people, and God, who love me unconditionally beyond my faults. I thought that maybe it would be different since I was now on Wisdom and an adult and I was right, but not in the way I thought. It was definitely my favorite tec since I went through. I got to spend a weekend with my best friends, ones who would hold me when I was crying, hug me for no reason, and make me feel loved. Even though I was loving Luther before, part of me was struggling with my faith life and personal issues. Tec helped me to put God back as number one in my life. Yesterday, I was told by someone that I have an amazing relationship with God and that is something that he respects and even envys. Although we aren't together anymore, partially for that reason, I have never respected someone more for saying that and not wanting to hold me back in my professional and spiritual life. As hard as break ups are, I respect him so much more now that he wants me to stay true to my values even if they don't agree with his. I have also been thinking a lot about summer which is 6.5 weeks away! I am kind of excited but at the same time I will really miss my friends here at Luther. I can't wait to see some of my best friends but also I am afraid that things will be different. I'm not sure what has been with me lately but I am trying my best to figure things out and let God have complete control of my life for I believe that he has an amazing plan for me and I just have to follow him to find it. Agape <3
